Suspicion arose in my mind and I asked another herbalist..."Do you use pain relief herbs or do you simply work with the condition so the pain is relieved?" - Matthew Wood

Learn to address the root cause of pain.

Join this course to delve into the musculoskeletal system from a traditional herbal perspective. Learn to tackle chronic pain by addressing its root causes, not just the symptoms. Most of all discover the power of plant allies for all sorts of painful conditions of the musculoskeletal system.
 Listening to herbalists discuss pain and chronic issues made me realize I never use these remedies. I asked a skilled herbalist if they use pain relief herbs or address the condition itself. She confirmed my approach: I focus on addressing the underlying cause, not masking pain. To be effective, we must understand the structure and process, then take action. Treating pain receptors alone is futile; we must target the root cause.
